About this manual
This manual describes the operation of the Malvern Mastersizer 2000 and 2000E
particle size analysers. Information is also given on basic use of the Hydro 2000G
and Hydro 2000MU sample dispersion units:
For more detailed information on the operation of any sample dispersion unit, see
its individual manual.
This user manual is a companion to the Mastersizer 2000 Essentials Manual
which gives Health and Safety, maintenance and other vital information which all
users must read.
After reading this user manual, users should understand the basic measurement
technique and be able to perform a simple measurement, analyse the data and iden-
tify the main features of the system.
For users who have never operated a Malvern particle analyser before, we recom-
mend reading this manual fully before starting the first measurement.
Users who are more familiar with particle size analysers may wish to proceed
straight to Chapter 4 which gives details on making measurements. However, the
importance of sample preparation before measurement cannot be overstated. We
therefore recommend that these users read the chapter on sample preparation
(Chapter 8) soon.
